Altoona Campus Kids Klub
The Altoona Campus Kids Klub program provides before and after school programming in 7 of the 8 Southeast Polk Elementary Schools. We offer day camps and summer camp during regularly scheduled no school days and summer for students from Altoona and surrounding communities.
Our state of Iowa HHS licensed programs has a ratio of approximately 1:10 (1 staff member for every 10 kids). All of our staff members are trained and certified in CPR and First Aid and meet or exceed all state licensing requirements. All of our staff have undergone background checks and are mandatory reporters for suspected violence or abuse. Our core staff members are have years of experience, are educators or are working towards education degrees. During the summer, our staff is enhanced by college students, many completing internships and practicum trainings, as well as experienced members of our community. We pride ourselves in our staff’s commitment to the safety and well-being of all students in the program.
